You need to start some daemons by specifying them in /etc/rc.conf.local :

pkg_scripts="dbus_daemon avahi_daemon avahi_dnsconfd ... "

It also was necessary to add some lines to ~/.xinitrc/~.xsession :


# if dbus is installed, start its daemon
if test -x /usr/local/bin/dbus-launch -a -z "$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS" ; then
        eval `dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session`
fi

(although I don't think that bit is required anymore. Not certain
though.) 

As others have said, the pkg-readme files explain exactly what you need
to set up.
